Joss Whedon, who wrote that particular line, blames the flack it gets on Halle Berry's performance. While that may be true, it's still a stupid line.

I like Seether, I've seen them live, and they are a horrible live band. They just stand there and play their music. It's way too boring for a live show. I don't think it helped that they had Ra, a horrible band, and some lame local band. The only good thing going for the show was JT Xperience opening the show.

The first time I saw Kimbo was when I tried downloading a real MMA match and then it turned out to be Kimbo fighting some guy on a lawn.

Anyway, I'm interested in who's going to win the battle of the beards. With these two guys they're just going to go toe to toe and swing, so it's going to be exciting.

Announcer: Brian Guppie

Color Commentator: Mike Patterson

Segment 1: Prime Time is still here

The show starts in the lockerroom with Elix Skipper flanked by Puma, Ricky Reyes, and B-Boy.

Skipper: “A little over a week ago a travesty occurred in the SMWA ring and it happened in the steel cage! Petey Williams somehow got the pinfall on me and I guarantee all you fans that next time I get in the ring with Williams I will get my belt back. Last week that bastard, Petey gave Nate Mattson a shot at the title before I get my rematch. That is bulls—! Petey I am going to get my g–damn belt back! Behind me you see Ricky Reyes and B-Boy who beat the Backseat Boys into the ground to win the tag team belts. You see Puma who put Paul London down for the count. This is an elite team and once I get the SMWA Championship belt around my waist again this is going to be the group with the most power in the SMWA and we will show everybody what is up in the SMWA!”

Segment 5: Introducing . . .

As London makes his way up the entry way he’s met by CM Punk, Alex Shelley and Austin Aries coming down to the ring. They get in his face but let him walk by and get to the back. The three men walk down and slide into the ring and Punk takes the mic from the announcer.

Punk: “Thanks for the warm welcome. In this ring you see a collection of the best talent in the SMWA and you see the members of a truly elite faction. Sure there is Prime Time, Gertner’s group of rejects and Alicia Webb’s motley crew but here is the Fantastic Four. You have the smooth talking leader, the man who will challenge for the SMWA Championship, you have me; CM Punk!”

Punk stops talking to take in the applause that never occurs and the pause is instead filled with boos.

Punk: “Apparently you fans don’t know talent when you see it. Standing beside me is the tag team of the Fantastic Four. Two ring technicians who can explode with power when the time is right. You saw that tonight as they easily handled the X-Foundation and they will move up the card and they will get the SMWA Tag Team Titles around their waist. They are the wrestling machine Austin Aries and the man with talent on loan from God, Alex Shelley!

“I know you fans aren’t going to appreciate them so I’m not going to give you any time to boo them. Then we come to the last position. The brawler, the enforcer if you will. The man who puts his body in the way of the groups opponents and is not afraid to fight rough in his matches. You just saw Super Dragon get beat down by Paul London a cruiserweight who couldn’t cut it in the big leagues. That’s why he is not the enforcer of the group. Instead it is a man who has endured more pain than you people can imagine. A man who knows no limits when he wrestles, The Messiah!”

Messiah charges out from the back and slides into the ring and takes a surprised Dragon down with a clothesline. Messiah pulls Dragon up to his feet and plants him with the Godsmack. All four of the members stomp away at Dragon before Messiah pushes him out of the ring and sends him down to the floor.

Punk: “In this ring you see the four men who are the future of the SMWA! In this ring you see the future of pro-wrestling and you better learn to enjoy looking at us because you are going to be seeing a lot of us.”

OA: 55

Guppie: “CM Punk told us he was going to be finding himself some backup and he has done it.”

Patterson: “Super Dragon took a lot of damage in his match with London and they finished the job stomping away at him. He’s not going to take that and let them get away with it.”

Guppie: “With the talent that CM Punk lined up I don’t know if there is anything that Super Dragon is going to be able to do about it.”

Patterson: “We’ll see what happens in future shows. For Mike Guppie, I’m Brian Patterson, thanks for watching SMWA Rage on ESPN 2. Be sure to check out smwawrestling.com for information on shows and your favorite wrestlers.”

Then there is the last man, Apollo Kahn. For some reason a lot of you people may not know who he is. Kahn is one of the toughest men there is.

OA: 66

Guppie: “The Thomasellis pick up the victory over Webb’s team in a crazy match.”

Patterson: “Bodies were flying all over the place in that match and in the end Brandon managed to put Evans away with the air raid crash.”

Guppie: “We have our final commercial break now and when we come back Nate Mattson will make an open challenge.”

Patterson: “Mattson is undefeated since he returned and that includes a victory over Low Ki in a brutal match and a victory over Spanky at the Year End Blowout, it’s going to be tough to stop Mattson’s momentum.”

Segment 4: The Always Popular Nate Mattson Challenge

Mattson comes out from the back to a mixed reaction from the crowd. He walks down to the ring and rolls in then gets up and takes the mic.

Mattson: “Last night I took on Spanky and it was a nice warmup match. Tonight, though I want a real challenge. I’ve been back in the SMWA for over four months and I haven’t been tested yet. I’ve mowed through all the competition that’s gotten in my way. I would have won but that bastard, Elix Skipper, cheated and got himself disqualified and luckily for him I never got a rematch. Just so Petey Williams knows I’ve got my eye on him and his new SMWA Belt. Petey you ain’t going to be getting past me when I step up against you and I will have the belt around my waist again.”

Petey Williams comes out from the back with the SMWA Championship around his waist and a mic in hand. Williams has a large bandage on his forehead from the brutal steel cage match last night.

Williams: “You sure do like to run your mouth Nate. Every week or two you come out here and talk about all the people you’ve beat. We get it, you’re a big deal here. However I am the champ now. In fact, I’ll let you have the first title shot. In January we are making our debut in Petoskey, Michigan and I’ll let you have a shot at my SMWA Championship.”

Mattson: “It’s about time somebody gave me some respect. But I’ve got an open challenge right now. How about you walk down to this ring and I take that title shot right now?”

Williams: “I would but while you were busy talking to me somebody else decided to answer your challenge. I think you should turn around.”

Mattson turns around in the ring and he’s face to face with AJ Styles!

OA: 72

Guppie: “Mattson got the title shot that he wanted and now he’s got AJ Styles one on one.”

Patterson: “This is going to be a good match. Mattson is going to get a chance to prove that he deserves that title shot he just got.”

Guppie: “Styles is a top competitor and he could have Mattson’s number.”

Patterson: “That’s what we said when Low Ki accepted his challenge and that didn’t turn out the way we thought it would. Never count Mattson out.”

Notes:

OA: 68

Guppie: “Nate Mattson picks up a big win with a victory over AJ Styles. What a brutal match!”

Patterson: “I said you can never count Mattson out and he proved why in that match against the phenomenal one.”

Guppie: “That was our final show for the year of two-thousand and eight and what a way to end the year.”

Patterson: “Be sure to check out smwawrestling.com for info on upcoming shows and keep on watching Rage on ESPN Two.”

I like Jedi better because it has a good ending and wraps everything up.

ESB is good but it leaves too many questions left unanswered and doesn't have a firm ending to really be the best movie of the series.

She has to pay $3,000 or so for less than 300 songs? That's fucked up. That's horrible advice as well. I would also reccomend that somebody drop out of college and get a job that pays next to nothing and that they will barely be able to live on in order to pay off huge debt.

I'm not a fan of HHH going over Mysterio. It really didn't make sense. I think it really hurts Mysterio and doesn't help HHH that much. We'll see what you can do with Rey after this to keep him looking good.

I like the tag scene as I was tempted to start a WWE diary so I could push Kendrick & London. Hopefully you can keep the competition going in the tag division and bring in more teams.

I like the way Smackdown is going much more than Raw. There have been too many title changes on Raw. I was glad to see Carlito & Masters win the tag belts but I wasn't a fan of them splitting up so soon. Especially not since Kane and Big Show are doing the same thing at the same time.

I'm looking forward to seeing the Wrestlemania card which could be pretty good judging from the NWO results but there are a few mysteries still which is good.

Those two had an experience edge on us that I thought would be a disadvantage but apparently I was wrong and it worked in their favor. Tonight, the shoe is on the other foot. I have the experience advantage as I take on Brandon Thomaselli. People are really high on him now since he won the Midwest Invitational Tournament. You didn’t have to face me in that tournament and last time we fought, remember I came out on top. I’m just better than you are and that’s a fact that neither you, nor anybody else can deny. Tonight I’m going to put you down for the count. Brandon, you can come down here right now and I’m going to show you what wrestling is all about.”

I needed to find a partner and what I did was look outside of the SMWA and I brought in Super Dragon to be my partner. That was a mistake, Dragon may be good but he wasn’t good enough and we lost that match to Lynn and Styles. My mistake was in looking outside of the SMWA. What I should have done was what I do best. Find some people in the promotion I can trust and get them to watch my back and promise to watch theirs. With all of the factions forming in the backstage it’s not safe to be on your own which is what I am right now. Or, I should, say what I was. I’ve been looking around to find the backup that I need to watch my back and to create a dominant faction. Tonight I’m still on my own but you fans will see the debut of my group. My group, called the Fantastic Four! No, we’re not the super hero group with that same name, we’re going to be better and we are going to run the SMWA! Tonight I get to take some personal revenge though. Jerry and AJ may have got the best of me in tag team action but I’ve beaten AJ one-on-one and I am going to beat Jerry tonight in a singles match as well. Tonight you fans are going to have to accept how awesome CM Punk is. What I am is straight-edge! I’m drug-free, alcohol-free and that means I’m better than you!”

When we get into this cage tonight I am going to unleash on you. I know you are somewhere in the back and you can hear me. What you see around that ring is the steel cage you asked for and the steel cage I am going to use to end your career. You will be left bloody and broken laying on the mat when I am through with you.

William gets up to his feet and starts pulling in his invisible ropes to cheers from the crowd as Skipper gets to his feet.

Skipper backs off Williams and rubs his right leg then bounces off the far ropes and drives his right knee into the back of Williams head slamming it against the cage. Skipper almost falls to the mat but he grabs the top rope holding himself up on his feet. Skipper regains his focus and pulls Williams up to his feet careful not to put too much pressure on his right leg. Skipper delivers some stiff forearm shots to the bloody face of Williams then sends him into the corner with an Irish whip. Skipper makes an awkward charge on his injured leg and connects with a running forearm shot. Skipper lifts Williams up to the top rope then shakes his leg out before climbing up to the second rope. Skipper hooks Williams for a superplex but can’t lift Williams up because of his injured leg. Skipper lets go and fires away with some forearm shots then goes for the suplex again but still can’t get it. Williams suddenly comes alive and starts trading forearm shots with Skipper. Williams then delivers a kick that catches the right leg of Skipper causing him to grab it in pain and Williams nails Skipper with a forearm shot that almost sends him off the ropes. Skipper stands up on the top rope and grabs Skipper around the waist then flips over taking Skipper off the top rope with a Canadian Destroyer and the crowd immediately starts a “holy shit” chant. Skipper is out of it in the middle of the ring and Williams rolls him over then drapes himself over his prone body and gets the three count.

Winner: Petey Williams (26:29)

Notes:

OA: 76

Guppie: “Petey Williams just won the SMWA Championship with a top rope Canadian Destroyer! Elix Skipper is got to be out of it!”

Patterson: “But Williams isn’t in much better shape. Both men were bleeding but Skipper’s cut wasn’t too bad and stopped bleeding during the match. Williams was bleeding heavily and he is still losing blood right now. He paid a heavy price to become the champion.”

Guppie: “It may be a heavy price but it is a price he paid willingly and one he would be willing to pay again!”

Patterson: “What an ending to an amazing show with Petey Williams dethroning Elix Skipper with a brutal cage match. Be sure to check out smwawestling.com for news on future shows and tune into ESPN 2 on Tuesdays to check out SMWA Rage.”

Guppie: “For Mike Patterson, I’m Brian Guppie, thanks for supporting the SMWA!”

A month between shows, I am such a slacker. I had a lot of school work to do and I've been busy with that and work so I haven't had a lot of time to work on this. It's nearing the end of the semester so I've had a lot of stuff due in a short period of time. Things shouldn't be this bad anymore. Plus it was a long show. I hope you enjoy it. I don't like to beg for feedback but I am going to. Tell me what you do and don't like about this show please.

Year End Blowout 2 Card

www.smwawrestling.com

December 24, 2008

It’s time for what will be one of our biggest shows to date. Kalamazoo will host the Year End Blowout on December 27.

Jack Evans ©vs. Josh Abercrombie (SMWA Premier Championship)

We start the show off with a title defense. Josh Abercrombie gets a shot at the Premier Championship and he faces the high-flying Jack Evans. This match will be exciting no matter who wins it.

Spanky vs. Nate Mattson

Nate Mattson tries to keep his undefeated streak alive as he takes on Spanky in the second match of the night. Spanky has a reputation worldwide but Mattson won’t let that stand in his way.

Alex Shelley vs. Brandon Thomaselli

Shelley takes on Brandon in his return match and this is a rematch. Shelley took the win the last time these met but now Brandon has the experience of winning the Midwest Invitational Tournament and has been looking good ever since then and the ring rust of Shelley may give the advantage.

Paul London vs. Puma

Two of the best wrestlers face off in this match. London will pit his fast paced, technical style against the hard-hitting striker Puma in this match.

Backseat Boys ©vs. B-Boy & Ricky Reyes (SMWA Tag Team Championship, Street Fight)

There will be some issues settled in this match as these two teams have been having issues with each other including a previous match that was thrown out because the action spilled into the crowd. This time action in the crowd will be legal and all of these men will use whatever means they have to in order to get the win.

AJ Styles vs. Austin Aries

These two face off in what should be an amazing encounter. Both of these men work a similar style and there will be no limits as they face off.

Jerry Lynn vs. CM Punk

Two great technical wrestlers do battle in this match. Lynn brings his experience against CM Punk who can work whatever style his opponent wants to. Both of these men are going to be competing to keep in the upper echelon and stay in the title hunt.

Elix Skipper ©vs. Petey Williams (SMWA Championship, Steel Cage)

These two men look to settle their differences with a steel cage match with the SMWA Championship on the line. Sipper managed to retain the belt against Williams before with the help of Prime Time but the cage takes them out of the equation and makes sure the best man will win. Only one of these men will walk out of the cage with the belt.

Be sure to check out the show in Kalamazoo in just 4 days. Tickets are still available for just $15 or $20 for ringside seats.

Wow, that was amazingly unfunny. The hand was mildly amusing but your writing ruined it. It should have been written the way you want the reader to say it. "This, this is Mae Young and Mark Henry's love child. I have raised it since birth. To kill!" That way the reader puts a pause between birth and to kill and makes the line funnier because of it. Secondly there is nothing funny about the way any of the people die. Linda completely misses the two killers but manages to nail two people she's not aiming at and kill them with one shot. That's just ludicrous.

I hate it when people take over companies and use their screen name as if it was what people called them in real life. Jord is fine but CHIKARA Fan is stupid. Just make up normal names or use your own. Plus you might want to explain why you now own the WWE and why you would instantly become the head bookers. Also you should probably explain why everybody is happy about that.

Rage Episode #30 (SMWA Gym, Detroit)

December 23, 2008

Announcer: Brian Guppie

Color Commentator: Mike Patterson

Guppie: “We sure do and we start tonight off with a match to see if Jack Evans defends the Premier Championship at the Year End Blowout as Josh Abercrombie takes on Azrael.”

Patterson: “Abercrombie is starting to make a name for himself here in the SMWA and he can earn a title shot by beating Azrael. But that will be no simple task as Azrael has a lot of experience here and has proven his ability time and time again.”

Segment 1: To Meet a Champion

After Abercrombie makes his entrance, Alicia Webb escorts Azrael down to the ring and she takes the mic.

Webb: “Tonight, Josh, you are getting a chance at a big opportunity. If you can win this match you’ll get a shot at the Premier Title at one of the biggest shows the SMWA has ever held. If you win this match tonight you will go on to face Jack Evans who is the best high-flyer professional wrestling has ever seen. If you win tonight you will face a man who can take a beating and come back like nobody else. However that is a big if because you are getting into the ring with Azrael. Azrael, who came close to being the first ever Premier Championship. Azrael, who has held the SMWA Tag Team Titles in the past. Azrael, who tonight, has your number and is going to make sure that Jack Evans does not have to waste his time taking on a loser like you. Azrael, who is going to put you down for the three count here tonight so Jack doesn’t have to do it later.”

Shelley: “A couple of months ago Low-Ki put me out with an injury. He kicked me in the arm and messed up some muscles in my arm. Let’s just say that Low-Ki has an ass kicking coming to him. Next time he shows up in the SMWA I am going to take him one-on-one and this time I am going to put him out of action with an injury. I was on a roll until I was injured. But, I’m coming back onto the right track. I’ve brought Austin Aries back to the SMWA and together we are going to head to the top of the tag team ranks and we will be the men at the top of the division. I am the master pure wrestling and Austin is the wrestling machine. The two of us are an unstoppable team and tonight we’re going to show that when we put AJ and Jerry down for the count. Jerry Lynn is renowned for his wrestling ability but his time has passed and tonight we are going to show all you fans that. AJ is good but he can’t compare to either Austin or I. He is one dimensional and tonight we are going to tear that dimension apart and earn ourselves a shot at the tag belts. Tonight, you fans will see a new tag team start its path to dominance.”

OA: 65

Guppie: “Alex Shelley is cocky but that’s not unusual for him.”

Patterson: “Shelley is just confident. He is a former SMWA Champion after all and he is one of the best technical wrestlers going today but he is underestimating his competition and that’s not a good thing to do.”

Patterson: “Shelley and Aries used some dirty tactics early in the match to gain control of the match but Lynn and Styles took them off that game plan and it put them on top and they eventually came out with the win.”

Guppie: “The tag scene here continues to heat up with great action and that’s all we have for you fans tonight. Remember the Year End Blowout takes place this Saturday at Kalamazoo.”

Patterson: “It’s going to be a big show. Check out smwawrestling.com for more info on the show which will be main-evented by Elix Skipper defending the SMWA Championship against Petey Williams inside the steel cage!”

Heading to the End of the Year

www.smwawrestling.com

December 19, 2008

The scene is heating up as we head to the Year End Blowout. We have already signed some big matches for the show and this is the current card for the show.

Elix Skipper ©vs. Petey Williams (SMWA Championship, Steel Cage Match)

Backseat Boys ©vs. B-Boy & Ricky Reyes (SMWA Tag Team Championship, Street Fight)

Nate Mattson vs. Spanky

Paul London vs. Puma

More matches will be added as the show takes place on December 27 in Kalamazoo, Michigan.

But before that we have the tapings for the Rage episode and the following matches have been signed.

Azrael vs. Josh Abercrombie

Abercrombie takes on a member of Alicia Webb’s stable and if he can win he’ll get a shot at the SMWA Premier Title at the Year End Blow Out. If he loses Jack Evans does not have to make a title defense.

Ricky Marvin vs. Spanky

Two great junior heavyweights square off in this match and the only thing on the line is bragging rights.

AJ Styles & Jerry Lynn vs. Alex Shelley & Austin Aries

Styles and Lynn look to continue get their tag team back on a winning path but they have a tough challenge. Austin Aries is an amazing athlete as is Shelley but he may have some ring rust after missing a couple of months from an injury. Both of these teams look to get a win here and put themselves in contention for the tag titles.

The tapings will take place in the SMWA gym in Detroit on December 21. Tickets are just $10. You’ll also see Homicide, Petey Williams, the Backseat Boys and Prime Time in action.

I deleted what I had already written for the show and had to start over. Luckily, I hadn’t actually written anything so I didn’t lose anything. I lost all of the scores but I’ll just put the overall scores up and that will be good enough for each segment I guess.

Tonight they face a tough challenge as the dream team of AJ Styles and Jerry Lynn steps up to challenge for the belts. Styles and Lynn are great wrestlers but they don’t have the team work of the Backseat Boys. Tonight Styles and Lynn are going to find out what makes the Backseat Boys so great.

“And then we have Reyes, B-Boy and the rest of Prime Time trying to take these belts away from us. They have been using whatever they can lay their hands on in order to injure the Backseat Boys and try to give themselves an advantage but it isn’t going to work. B-Boy and Reyes may be thugs but the Backseat Boys know what hardcore wrestling is all about. These two have fought the best in all kinds of environments and they fight wherever there is a fight to be had. These two are the flag-bearers of the Gertner Associates and they are carrying the SMWA into the future.

“Since I’m talking about the Gertner Associates we have Petey Williams challenging Elix Skipper for the SMWA Championship. We backed Petey up when he needed the help and he has stepped up into the spot vacated by Johnny Spade. The Gertner Associates are riding high and I will keep these men on the right path no matter what happens in the back.”

Notes:

OA: 78

Guppie: “B-Boy and Reyes once again attack the Backseat Boys after a hard fought title defense and make their presence felt.”

Patterson: “Acid and Kashmere were both tired after that match as were Styles and Lynn who were in the wrong place at the wrong time. B-Boy and Reyes always attack when the champs are at their weakest and they always do significant damage.”

Guppie: “That’s all we have for you fans tonight. Tune in next week to see if the Backseat Boys can get revenge and see all your favorite wrestlers in action.”

Patterson: “Check out smwawrestling.com for info on upcoming shows and to stay up to date on everything that happens in the SMWA. For Brian Guppie, I’m Mike Patterson, thanks for watching.”

The way you write the results for your shows makes me want to poke out my eyes. The parts you point out aren't even highlights of the match. You'd be better served by writing in paragraphs with more summary and then noting the spots. Putting the spots in context makes them work better than just throwing them out there. It's even worse for your promos as they just feel sloppy written that way. The parts where you have a promo written right into a match are really fugly too and the two segments should be seperated.

I don't think the Earl character is going to work in a diary. It's funny in real life but it doesn't really work here. Or maybe it just doesn't work with your writing. I get the joke it's just not that funny.

The buildup to a Rhino/Tanaka match is going way too fast. I assume it is going to be on the next PPV or big show or whatever the fuck it is you are doing and you just blew through a ton of storyline stuff in one night.

Jayden couldn't be anymore right on how horrible a name Thugging Marvelous is.

Your backstory is poorly written. It has lots of spelling and grammar mistakes which I find never bodes well for a diary. Then putting a bunch of shows all in one post turns people off. I know I didn't read any of those shows because there is too much all at once. You could easily have just started with your backstory and one show and kept on going that way.

Quit asking for feedback at the end of your shows. It's so hackneyed. People will let you know what they think of it if they want to and asking for it isn't going to get you anymore feedback.

Notes: *3/4

OA: 64 CR: 53 MQ: 76

Guppie: “The Thomaselli Brothers take home a victory over the new team of Apollo Kahn and Azreal.”

Patterson: “Both of those teams were throwing out their big moves early in the match and got some quick near falls.”

Guppie: “Up next we have the SMWA Premier Championship on the line as Jack Evans defends against Spanky.”

Patterson: “Spanky has a big reputation from his work in WWE, RoH and in Japan and he has more mat skill and harder hitting ability than Evans but Evans has a huge advantage in the high flying department.”

Segment 2: Premier Champ For the People

Jack Evans comes out from the back accompanied by Alicia Webb meeting Kahn and Azrael in the ring.

Alicia: “As you fans may have noticed, Teddy Hart has abandoned his team here. But that doesn’t matter. I took the initiative and gave these guys new motivation. Teddy could never win a belt but now Jack Evans is the Premier Champion. I’ve formed this new tag team of Apollo Kahn and Azreal. They may have started a little slow tonight but once they get into the flow of things they will be a team to be feared. Azrael has proven his abilities in the tag team ranks before and is a former SMWA Champion and it will be a short time before he is a tag team champion once again. Right now, you fans get to see Jack Evans defend the belt against Spanky. A man who hasn’t had to earn his shot at the belt. He’s only had one other match in the SMWA and it was a tag team match that he lost. Jack came back to the SMWA as a former SMWA champion, the second champ ever and he still had to earn a shot at that belt. He then had to earn his shot at the Permier Championship and he did that and capitalized. Spanky, you aren’t going to be able to waltz in here and take the belt from him. You may have a reputation but Jack has the skill and he’s not going to let that belt go. Spanky, you are going to step into this ring and see what Jack is all about.”

Notes: ***1/2

OA: 79 CR: 67 MQ: 91

Guppie: “What a match! Those two guys were putting their bodies on the line to get the Premier Championship.”

Patterson: “Spanky dished out a lot of punishment but Evans absorbed it all and capitalized with his high-flying arsenal. That was definitely an impressive showing from both men.”

Guppie: “After the commercial break we have the main event where Elix Skipper defends the SMWA Championship against Brandon Thomaselli in the cage.”

Patterson: “Elix Skipper offered this challenge to Brandon to make a statement to Petey Williams but Brandon is no push over and could surprise Skipper here tonight.”

Segment 4: The Example

As the show comes back from commercial Brandon is waiting inside the cage. Skipper’s music hits drawing boos from the crowd and he walks out from the back with a mic in hand and stops right away.

Skipper: “Tonight, Petey Williams gets a preview of what is going to happen to him at the Year End Blowout. He thought he put one over on me when he got his title shot and got it inside of a cage. The cage may take Prime Time out of the equation but it doesn’t take care of his biggest problem, me. The cage may keep Prime Time out but it gives me one more weapon to use against you Petey and I am going to use it with ruthless abandon. I’m going to use it tonight against Brandon as well and you are going to see blood flow here tonight. Ever since I made my challenge I’ve been hearing people say that Brandon Thomaselli could upset me and take the SMWA Championship away from me. They tell me to look at the fact that he’s beaten CM Punk and Puma but I’m not worried. Brandon, you may be the Midwest Invitational Champion but I wasn’t in that tournament to stop you. You have earned a shot at the title and tonight I’m going to stop your momentum in the worst way. That cage is your doom tonight, Brandon, and it’s going to be Petey’s doom too.”

SMWA Rage Card

www.smwawrestling.com

December 5, 2008

On our last show the team of AJ Styles and Jerry Lynn earned a shot at the SMWA Tag Team Titles by beating the teams of CM Punk and Super Dragon as well as Spanky and Paul London. They will face The Backseat Boys next week. But we have a great show lined up this week as well. Tapings take place Saturday in the SMWA gym.

Apollo Kahn & Azrael vs. The Thomaselli Brothers

Alicia Webb displays her new tag team as they face off against the Thomaselli Brothers in a tough debut match. However the Thomaselli’s lost to the Wild Cards’ in their debut and Webb hopes her team can do the same thing.

Jack Evans ©vs. Spanky (SMWA Premier Championship)

Jack Evans makes a title defense against Spanky in what should be an exciting match. These two men are both great junior heavyweights. Spanky uses a more mat based style while Evans is the best high flyer to ever step into the ring.

Elix Skipper ©vs. Brandon Thomaselli (Cage Match, SMWA Championship)

Last week on SMWA, Skipper made a challenge to Brandon to meet him in a cage. Skipper wants to make an example of Brandon for Petey Williams to get a sneak peak at. However Brandon has earned this shot by winning the Midwest Invitational Tournament. We’ll see what happens when these two meet in the main event.

Tickets are available for just $10. You will also see Puma, Paul London, Backseat Boys, CM Punk and Jerry Lynn.

Dude, not good. First of all during your Joe interview you kept using "your" when you should have been using "you're." Your is possessive and you're is you are. Plus you didn't always capitalize the names of the wrestlers and that can be confusing with some of the names like Styles and Strong since they work as normal words as well.

The Pure Title match was the worst match on the card for several reasons. First of all it felt like a normal match and you didn't mention rope breaks or anything. Secondly Nigel doesn't win cleanly, that's the whole gimmick behind his title reign is that he stretches the rules without actually cheating. Or he cheats a small amount

What was with referring to Sydal and Reyes as the junior members of the teams. I can sort of understand for Sydal but Reyes and Romero have pretty much always been a team and Reyes has more experience in RoH than Romero does which would make him the junior member although I wouldn't consider either pitbull the junior member.

The Joe/Claudio match and the Cabana & Steel vs. Collyer & Homicide had weird moments when you reveal the thoughts of the wrestlers and that doesn't really seem to work. Especially since the thing Cabana thinks is he's disappointed about losing to Collyer and not Homicide since Collyer is ranked lower. That's just stupid. I don't like the idea of Claudio giving up and going down in style it seems dumb. Why would he know that he can't win?

The chair being used in the main event was kind of lame too but I thought the whole main event was lackluster.

This style of writing seems fairly weak for an RoH diary. You should probably try using spell check and reading over your shows because there are a lot of spelling and grammar errors.

Rage Episode #27 (SMWA Gym, Detroit)

December 2, 2008

Announcer: Brian Guppie

Color Commentator: Mike Patterson

Guppie: “Welcome to SMWA Rage! I’m Brian Guppie and I’m joined on commentary by Mike Patterson.”

Patterson: “We have an exciting show lined up for you fans tonight with a great main event. Before we get to some matches though CM Punk is in the ring with something to say.”

Segment 1: Punk Sets the Scene

Punk is standing in the ring with the mic as the boos start to die down.

Punk: “Thanks for the warm reception. After I lost the Midwest Invitational Tournament match to Brandon Thomaselli I was pretty down. I went into that locker room and I was disappointed in myself. I beat Brandon in my first match here and then when the pressure was on I folded. Let’s be honest, when it mattered he beat me and I respect him for that. But that didn’t make me feel any better. So, I’m sitting in the locker room with my head hung low. Then in comes the owner. He tells me that they want to improve the tag division and that I have a chance to win the belts. All I had to do was find a partner and win a triple threat tag match to get a shot at the gold.”

My first instinct was to call Ace Steel, since we just had a title shot together, and ask him if he wanted to join me but he told me he was in Japan and couldn’t partner with. Then I called my good friend, Colt Cabana, but he told me he was in Ring of Honor. I was feeling down, but then I called up Chris Hero! But he told me he had to work Ring of Honor as well. Thinking of Hero brought me around to the idea of people I’ve had good matches against and I called up Samoa Joe but he was going to be in Japan as well. At this point I started to get worried. Then I decided to just find the best wrestler I could to team up with me. I don’t care if they have any connection with me. Who wouldn’t want a shot at the SMWA Tag Team Titles? So that became my new tactic and my first call paid off. I made a call to Southern California and I got my partner. The phone call was a little weird because the guy I called didn’t talk he sort of grunted. So instead I got on the computer and messengered Super Dragon! That’s right, tonight, you fans get to see the team of CM Punk and Super Dragon in the main event. Those punks facing off against us are going to get the crap kicked out of them by the two of us and this is going to be one simple step to getting a shot at the belts.”

OA: 83

Guppie: “Our main event for the night is set as CM Punk and Super Dragon take on AJ Styles and Jerry Lynn as well as the team of Paul London and Spanky.”

Patterson: “That’s going to be an amazing match. Before we get there we start off with singles action as Brandon Thomaselli takes on Eddie Kingston.”

Guppie: Brandon is coming off his momentum of winning the Midwest Invitational Tournament and he’s a hot commodity right now.”

Patterson: “Kingston is a hard hitter and is going to be using his power to beat the smaller Brandon but Brandon has more speed which evens things out as long as he can avoid being trapped by Eddie.”

Segment 2: Brandon Thomaselli vs. Eddie Kingston

Brandon and Eddie face off in the middle of the ring and Eddie goes for the lockup but Brandon grabs an arm of Eddie and ducks behind him right into a hammerlock.

Guppie: “Brandon Thomaselli picks up a win over Eddie Kingston in a back and forth match.”

Patterson: “Kingston delivered quite a bit of damage but Brandon took it all and kept coming back and took the win.”

Guppie: When we come back from commercial break we have the champ, Elix Skipper in the back and then highlights from the match between Black Tiger Four and Trent Acid.”

Segment 3: The Champ has Spoken

Elix Skipper is backstage standing in front of a blank wall.

Skipper: “In the eight man elimination tag two weeks ago Petey Williams surprised me. He showed me he actually has some grit in his character. Petey earned some respect from me, not a lot but some. In honor of that respect I’m going to give Petey a demonstration of what is going to happen to him in the cage. You just saw Brandon Thomaselli beat Eddie Kingston and he did win the Midwest Invitational Tournament. So, because of his recent accomplishments I’m going to give him a title shot and it’s going to be in a steel cage match. Brandon is going to serve as an example for Petey and he’s going to get a shot at the gold next week if he is willing to step in the cage with me.”

Guppie: “I’m sorry we couldn’t show you the whole match but instead we get the entire main event and you won’t be sorry.”

Patterson: “How could you be? Six of the best wrestlers in the world are going to be in that ring battling for a shot at the tag team titles. They are out there to earn something and they aren’t going to hold back.”

Guppie: “All three of these teams are great but the team of Punk and Super Dragon could be at a disadvantage because they’ve never teamed together before.”

Patterson: “London and Spanky have the experience edge in this match and considering how good everybody is that edge might be what they need. To remind everybody this is one fall to a finish.”
